Surely any AR from Apple should be the Reality Distortion Filter. :)

#22Assuming the Apple headset has similar features and quality as Varjo XR-3 ($5,995.00) + better ergonomics, I will definitely consider buying it for that price. https://varjo.com/
Thinking apple would ship a first version that maxes out in hw specs shows a lack of historical understanding of apples past behavior.
Given their history we can expect: nice form factor, minimal features, easy to use, minimal specs, priced higher than what the specs would suggest

#23it should look like glasses
if it looks like a giant face mask like the VIVE or the other one from facebook, then it'll flop, meaning it will stay as a niche market
VR/AR should be an evolution of glasses, not a downgrade, not something else
Something like this:

I'd buy this instantly, and i don't even wear glasses

#24While there maybe a 2K version, I would be very surprised if that were the starting point. Rather like their other products they will offer higher-end versions. There is a lot of tech going into these that will make the base price a bit high since most people we consider this an accessory like a watch that's for fun, rather than something required like a phone or computer.

#25I don't know who designed the mockup at the top of the page, but it must be some alien form with a nose right in between the eyes!

Apple is more leaning towards AR than VR - a device useful for prolonged usage like ~10 hrs a day. So, chances of a headgear are very low. It'll be more like RayBan glasses offered by FB or spectacles.

#27I'm hoping it will be called iGlass. ;)

#28Whatever they do, they must not call it iSight. It’s a painfully bad pun.
Obviously this will be eyePods.

#29It's handy to remember that the rumor mill says that Apple has two AR hardware projects going.
A high end/developer focused set of goggles as well as consumer focused AR glasses.
>Apple's AR/VR headset will be followed by an augmented reality product, which rumors have been calling the Apple Glasses. The Apple Glasses will be more of an everyday wearable product than the headset, as they will resemble traditional glasses.

> when competitors are $300
Something tells me Apple doesn't consider Oculus quest much of a competitor. The Quest is 99.99% used for gaming. Essentially nothing else. I doubt gaming will even be much of a focus for the Apple headset.
